Abstract
El Cuestionario de Estados de Ánimo: adaptación y validación de la
versión española. Antecedentes: en este estudio se analizan las propiedades
psicométricas del Cuestionario de Estados de Ánimo (MOOD) en población
infantil española. Este instrumento fue desarrollado para cubrir el vacío
existente en la evaluación de los estados de ánimo en niños. Método:
el MOOD fue administrado a una muestra de 1.489 niños (edad media=
9,11 años). Resultados: las propiedades psicométricas del cuestionario
resultaron adecuadas, observándose la relación de los estados de ánimo
con la competencia emocional y las quejas somáticas. Conclusiones: en
base a los resultados obtenidos, el uso de esta herramienta diagnóstica con
niños españoles parece justificado.
